Software Update: qBittorrent 3.3.16

Version 3.3.16 of qBittorrent has been released. This open source torrent client has versions for Windows, Linux, macOS and FreeBSD, and shows no ads. The program is with Qt developed and based on libtorrent (raster bar) and boost. The program is the brainchild of French student Christophe Dumez, who has been working on it since March 2006. Today it is maintained by the community. The following changes and improvements have been made in this release:

bug fix:

• Better memory footprint when using libtorrent 1.1.x. The cache is turned off by default(0 (disabled) value in the settings). The value -1 (auto) makes it use 1/8 of your RAM.
• Skip user input events when adding torrent. Close #7327.
• Avoid memory leak in the speed graph.

WebUI:

• Fix validating wrong header field. X-Forwarded-Host is a foreign proxy setting, it isn’t the same as qbt’s local setting and thus it makes no sense to verify it. Close #7311.

Windows:

• Fix connection problems when a specific interface/ip is configured.
• Disable skipping or loopback interfaces. This fixes the absence of VPN tunnel interfaces under Windows and works around the QTBUG-32349. Fix #7291.
• The installer detects the 64bit running process too.
